I love how they actually acknowledge hipsters as their target audience :P

Wait, is a Tic Tac actually supporting Trump or are they just desperately trying not to pick a side? (If the answer is common knowledge in the States, blame my ignorance on not being American)

Music was my first love...

It’s clearly a wink to Microsoft and their atrocity which is called WordArt which somehow everyone (including me) used to think is fancy.

Actually some Android manufacturers are also getting fingerprint readers. And yes, I think it makes great sense to unlock a phone with your fingerprint.

I still have this dream of phone-sized dedicated password manager device (with zero connectivity options of course) with an encrypted password file inconspicuously named and hidden in plain sight somewhere on the filesystem, and an equally inconspicuously hidden decryption binary. You’d have to find the password file…

I know frequent password changes make me write them down. And I’m not gonna change that behaviour, because there have been too many occasions of me changing my password and forgetting the new one the next day.

I personally found that even with muscle memory, I often missed a node by a millimetre, or accidentally hit a node I was a supposed to miss by a millimetre. I found that I was consequentially busy for longer than I would be entering a 4-digit numerical code. But I guess this may be different for other people.

It’s the quick-code for the exact drink configuration (strength, amount of sugar etc.) I took from the coffee machine at some place I used to frequent. I know of a handful people that they have seen or heard this code, but I know who they are, I trust them, and I don’t think they suspect I use it as a passcode now. So…

I found the entering of ALPs to be quite error-prone, it’s easy to accidentally hit a node or to miss one you’re supposed to hit. The abundance of these errors unfortunately increases with the same things that increase the “complexity score”. As a result, ALPs will be quite slow, whereas speed is what’s supposed to…

A public retweet is definitely an endorsement. Not necessarily of the author of the tweet but definitely of the message. E.g. if <entity> were to send an anti-<thing> tweet, it would likely get retweeted by people who oppose <entity> but do hate <thing>. They endorse the anti-<thing> message by doing so, but they do…

But where to park it at work? It won’t fit standard bike parking spots.

In case you’re interested, one of the tagged pictures:

This makes so much sense, how did I not see this coming? Of course you don’t do this if you have nothing to gain from it. It just takes too much time and effort for that. There’s no reason why an actual person would do this without deciding halfway that it’s not worth the effort.

I’m kind of having this question too. I mean, if it’s just that diverse and diversity-promoting authors are becoming more commonplace and popular, that seems like a good thing to me. But if we’re pressurising existing ones into changing their art, that’s an attempt to violate their artistic freedom, which is a bad…

Magnets. Though they gotta be friggin’ strong, and only work if the switch is made of magnetisable material in the first place.

It’s no use, the hostility goes deep all the way to the Kore(a).

This is long overdue, but great that it’s coming after all! I hope they’re also give power users the option to be presented by default with the old individual permissions instead of the new “simplified” permission groups. And if we get to enable/revoke those old, more specific permissions on an individual basis that…

In my opinion, on the one hand, it should be possible to search a computer even if the owner has made it impossible to figure out where the computer is located and who should receive a notice about the search. On the other hand, searching outside your jurisdiction and without notice should not be possible in any other…

Well, with a fake Facebook you’re basically misrepresenting yourself so perhaps then it’s not so unexpected to get no matches... Though I do appreciate your attempt to use Tinder as a person who doesn’t have a Facebook account because that’s something I’d like to as well. I don’t think they’re ever gonna drop the FB…
